Dry
skin is a very common condition and it can lead to the painful
problem of cracking and fissuring of the skin especially round the
edge of the heels. In most people this is a nuisance and a cosmetic
problem but when the fissures are deep, the skin bleeds easily
and is usually very painful.

This
condition is sometimes associated with wearing open backed shoes
with the rim of the sole causing the irritation. These types of shoes
should be avoided and daily use of a good foot cream with periodical
gentle use of a foot dresser will help to keep the rough skin from
forming. In severe cases a soft density gel heel protector pad
will protect and help to reduce stress on the heels.

If
there is a question of diabetes or vascular problems, referral to a
State Registered Chiropodist / Podiatrist or family doctor is recommended.
